Childrens TV
Well ive been pondering this and I have to say its shite compared to 10 years ago, it really is a pile of shite.
Discuss
What was your favourite program?
Mine was the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, followed by Thundercats then Transformers, I was also a bit partial to danger mouse and the chipmonks (alvin, simon, pheodore, doop, doop, di du dwa doop)

Re: Childrens TV
Maggie and the Ferocious Beast is fantastic!
As a kid I watched Thundercats amongst other things, and I LOVED Dogtanian and the three Muskahounds!

Re: Childrens TV
do you mean mysterious cities of gold? or am i thinking of something else?
mysterious cities of gold was excellent, as was original transformers, thundercats etc
jayce and the wheeled warriors
ulysees (sp?) 31
if you want good cartoons now you have to watch adult swim, with the rather excellent sealab 2021 and some other stuff that i cant remember the name of

Re: Childrens TV

Thundercats, TMHT, Inspector Gadget, Danger Mouse...
*sigh*
Although when you watch them now you do realise they aren't much better than todays tv.
Childrens tv now is shockingly bad.

Re: Childrens TV
The reason that childrens TV today is so piss poor is because no one wants to make program that in any way shape or form could be considered "violent"
Teanage Mutant Ninja Turtles, ect were violent....
Today the best shows are Rugrats and SpongeBob, although spongebob has been attacked for being "violent"
